The French navy transported reinforcements, fought off a British fleet, and protected Washington’s forces in Virginia. French assistance was crucial in securing the British surrender at Yorktown in 1781.Davidnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-798299306705730955.post-50921283157750336742017-07-15T14:19:06.828+12:002017-07-15T14:19:06.828+12:00I am sure that Trump might remind Macron of the te...I am sure that Trump might remind Macron of the tens of thousands of Americans who are buried in France after trying to rescue France again from ignominy.Paulusnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-798299306705730955.post-11871952980766337042017-07-15T10:35:46.960+12:002017-07-15T10:35:46.960+12:00It might be nice to have a blog commenter named Te...It might be nice to have a blog commenter named Te Kauwhaka who could spell and desist from personal abuse.<br /><br />GD, funny you stole my next post, not quite word for word.

And I said, that’s big deal, 100 years since World War I&quot; History, who needs to know history.<br /><br />The Predident is of course, a decisive man, known for his clear thinking and policy making skills as exemplified by this statement of intent &quot;“If it happens that will be wonderful and if it doesn&#39;t that will be ok too,” Mr Trump said at a joint press conference with French President Emmanuel Macron, appearing to leave the matter open-ended. “We’ll see what happens,” he added. <br /><br />Waikikamukau Newsnoreply@blogger.com
